Don’t Go Up There – Da Yoopers – letras

I have to go to marquette to attend a seminarDo they have motels up there and roads to drive my carNo, leave your car below the bridge cause there’s no roads up thereThey’ll put you up in a tent so bring long underwearI knew a guy who had an aunt whose cousin had a friendWho once went up above the bridge and was never seen againHe was trampled by a moose or eaten by a bearOr scalped by those indians who still run wild thereChorus:Don’t go up there, stay where you’re atDon’t go up there you wont come backThey don’t have no electric lights to keep away the wolves at nightThey don’t have no law and order stay down here below the borderStay where you’re at don’t go up there you won’t come backI heard there was a native tribe way up in the woodsThey call them jackpine savages and they don’t speak so goodYa they all carry guns and knives and great big tomahawksAnd their women do their laundry beating clothes against the rocksI wanna go vacationing way up in the s00Should i bring along some cash or will my plastic doOnce you get above the bridge hire yourself a guideHe’ll take you there by dog sled for forty beaver hideChorus:Don’t go up there stay where you’re atDon’t go up there you wont come backThey don’t have no shopping malls they live like neanderthalsThey don’t have no stores or fridges stay down here below the bridgeStay where you’re at don’t go up there you wont come backIn july i’m going to yooperland to go swimming in the lakeI’ll bring some suntan lotion what else should i takeYou better bring an ax along for chopping through the iceAnd wear a thermal diving suit to guard against frostbiteI wanna go to yooperland to live a peaceful lifeTell me what i have to do to be a yooper wifeYou gotta build an outhouse and skin and cook a deerAnd snowshoe to the trading post when you’re out of beerDon’t go up there stay where you’re atDon’t go up there you won’t come backThey don’t have no jumbo jets no telephones no tv setsThey don’t have no running water stay down here below the borderStay where you’re at don’t go up there you wont come back
